Chapter 806: Little Jade ...... on the Shore of Daming Lake Ah, Tamamo mae

What kind of situation is the Tianhai family, Sen Xia doesn't know yet. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

And Yukino, who probably knows some of the situation, is in the shrine at this time.

"It's amazing......"

Because of the renovation, the shrine is not open today.

But today, the shrine maidens have almost arrived.

It's not just the shrine maidens, but Takeuchi and Nasu also came here to watch at this time.

The reason why they came here was simple - because the statue in front of Tamamo was ready.

"This way—this way—"

Although they are statues, in fact, these statues are completely different from ordinary statues.

At this time, the porter was carefully placing the statue in front of Tamamo in the shrine.

On top of the statue, there are layers of plastic foam, and the statue is completely covered by plastic foam, and after the statue is fixed, everyone tears the foam open, revealing the original appearance of Tamamo.

However, there is actually a difference between Tamamo-mae in Toba Shrine and Tamamo-mae in mythology in the past.

When the plastic foam was slowly uncovered, the statue in front of Tamamo was finally revealed in front of everyone.

This is a cute girl with fox ears, pink hair, and a blue kimono.

"Wow, that's cute!"

After seeing this girl, the first thing to shout out was not the Nasu otaku, but the witches next to them.

In this year, it seems that there are many subtle differences between people's aesthetics and later people, when the life-size figure of Tamamo is ...... Ah, after the statue in front of Tamamo appeared, the girls thought it was cute.

"It's a bit of a magical girl. Nasu looked at it for a while and said, "I didn't feel it when I was on paper before, but now I look like it's great." ”

The reason why Nasu and Takeuchi came here is simple, that is, to take materials.

Well, that's right, they're just here to be lazy...... Oh no, they're here to get the material.

After finishing the game, they were thinking about making a new game. Although there are DLC and FanDisc, Takeuchi feels that they can't just see what is in front of them, but also have to think about what will happen in the future, so even if they don't make a new game now, they must have an idea or an understanding.

Coincidentally, after they heard that the statue on the side of Toba Shrine was about to be brought over, they happened to run over to take a look and collect the wind by the way.

There are only members of the shrine here today, but these two cheeky guys have blended in.

After putting the statue in place, Yukino came to the front, and then carefully observed, if there is a flaw in the statue, it can be corrected in time, and if there is a problem after the shrine opens, it will be even more troublesome at that time.

Although it is a "statue", the statue in front of Tamamo is not made of ordinary stone, neither marble nor other stones. But these statues are not made of resin, and in terms of craftsmanship, this statue is more complicated.

The statue is made of fiberglass as a whole, but this is only on the inside, and various lacquers and gold leaf are used on the outside.

- Well, that's right, Kodama, ah, it's the golden pattern around the kimono in front of Tamamo, which is pasted with gold leaf.

If it weren't for the fact that time didn't allow it, Yukino would probably want to make it with better materials.

It turns out that people's first impression of an object is often the appearance of the object, not the underlying content.

When Tamamo completely appeared in front of everyone, the whole sculpture gave a lifelike feeling because of the excellent color and shape.

RB people are very particular about the inside of things, and this statue in front of them is like this. Although it's just a statue, it's coated with a layer of primer on the surface, and then the outside of the primer is a kind of skin-like paint, so the whole appearance of Tamamo is not the same as an ordinary statue, giving people a very fake feeling.

In fact, if it was according to Xue Nai's own ideas, she originally wanted to make a "human-like" structure.

In other words, it is made of artificial hair, artificial skin, and artificial clothes, so that the tamamo in front of you is not just a statue, but a simulated existence.

However, there are a lot of problems when you do that.

First of all, there is the problem that there is no way to preserve it for a long time. If you really only make such a statue, then the shelf life of this statue will be quite short, no matter how much you maintain it, I am afraid that the life span will not exceed five years. Organic materials have a lifespan, and it is not very difficult to make a lifelike portrait. But once the statue begins to age, the entire statue will begin to deteriorate rapidly.

Secondly, such a man-made statue will give people a very uncomfortable feeling, according to the uncanny valley theory, the closer human beings are to humans, the more human beings will like it, but after this "similarity" reaches a certain level, human beings will become more and more afraid, and when this close value is closer and closer to human beings, human beings will fall in love with this creation again, this is the uncanny valley theory.

Thinking of a cute existence like Fox Ear Niang, of course, it is already an existence that has crossed the uncanny valley, but such a lifelike statue body, it is difficult to say.

After thinking about it for a while, Yukino finally didn't choose this option - and it was too late.

But for the people of the shrine, such a statue is enough. In their opinion, the statue is very delicate and perfect, both in terms of the details of the statue and the overall structure.

Ahem, in fact, I invited a famous artist to make it.

At first, the people who took the work were very strange that this thing was actually Tamamae, but later, when they knew that the statue was going to be placed in the "Toba Shrine", their expressions became even more subtle.

- Put the statue of Sun Monkey in front of the Jade Emperor, that's what happened!

But after all, this is the commission of the Tianhai family, and they gave a lot of money, and this matter itself is also very brainy, so everyone is happy to complete it.

Just before the festival begins in May, the statue in front of Tamamo arrives here.

"But I really didn't expect that Tamamo could have something to do with Amaterasu...... And it seems to make a lot of sense. Takeuchi sighed a little.

Regarding the "Tamamo front" in front of him, in fact, Takeuchi had discussed it with Mori Xia two years ago, so when he saw this Tamamo for the first time, Takeuchi felt a little familiar.

After that, Takeuchi thought about the things he had discussed with Mori Xia before.

I didn't expect the result to come out like this.

"Actually, I think it's very reasonable!" Unlike Takeuchi, Nasu felt that Tamamo and Amaterasu didn't seem to have anything to do with it, "There are many legends about Tamamo itself, and there are also a lot related to Tsugini Ten, so if you trace it back a little, it actually makes sense." ”

It's a pity that Mori Xia is not here now, otherwise he must have held Nasu's hand and shouted "comrade".

Well, the positive sense of the title.

"Well...... It's okay no matter what.,As long as it's cute.。 The concept of "moe" left by Senxia has spread on the current Internet, although the "moe culture" has not yet been formed, but among the people who use the Internet, those who do not know "moe" can be said to be very few.

After saying this, Takeuchi began to look at the entire shrine.

For the sake of this statue in front of Tamamo, the entire shrine has been renovated.

After the redecoration, I don't know that the shrine after the renovation, it gives people a very harmonious feeling, especially when the statue in front of Tamamo is delivered here, and after it is installed, the statue and the layout of the whole room are very harmonious, and there is a charm.

To a large extent, the "Tamamo Front" in front of you is a two-dimensional painting style, but under the hands of the masters, this statue has a very strong sense of art and sacredness.

Especially when the statue is combined with the shrine itself, there is a sense of novelty but elegance.

If this statue were to be placed somewhere else, many people would probably think that it was a two-dimensional creation, or something that some animation company or somewhere had made up. But the fact that this statue is now placed inside this shrine gives people the feeling of "ah, that's how it is".

In other words, "no sense of disobedience".

"It's such a two-dimensional thing, but why do I think it's so suitable here?" said Nasu.

"But it's really eye-catching, isn't it!" Takeuchi looked very happy.

Nasu did not deny Takeuchi's words: "Ah, yes, if it weren't just this shrine, all places in the world would have this style of painting, how nice it would be!"

Nasu imagined such a scene in his mind.

If you think about it, it's still a lot of fun.

What a wonderful thing it would be if reality and two-dimensional could be combined.

"Well, in fact, this is also because of the handwriting of these masters. Takeuchi sighed, "The decoration of this shrine, the statue, and the shrine maiden costumes of the shrine maidens were all created by these masters after investigation. ”

Yes, this statue was not only made based on the original manuscript provided by Mori Natsu, but in the process of making it, these masters also made a second creation based on their own ideas, the shrine maiden costumes of the shrine maidens, the geographical environment of the shrine itself, and so on, and made the statue in front of Tamamo.

- Just like the mirror that is now placed in front of Tamamo, this is what the masters themselves think.

According to Mori Xia's "research", Amaterasu is the root of Tamamo, and they discussed it with relevant experts based on this content, and the final result is that the essence of Tamamo is "sunlight reflected by water", which is a clone of the sun on the ground.

This mirror symbolizes this.

The mirror itself, also known as the "Tamamo Town Stone", is also a mirror stone that reflects the sun's rays under the river.

If it is a group of old-fashioned masters, when they encounter this kind of thing, they will probably pick and choose, and even if they don't pick and choose, they probably won't open their minds by themselves.

But the masters invited by Xue Nai were originally very good at playing, and since it was originally a brain-opening thing, it wouldn't prevent us from continuing to open our brains a little bigger!

As a result, such a man-made myth was manipulated by the masters in this way and that, and finally became what it is now.

If Mori Xia only gave a seed at the beginning, then now, what these masters have done is to make this seed sprout into a sapling.

But in fact, this matter can be summarized more carefully, that is, the masters can play.

It can be said that it is precisely because of these masters that Senxia's original idea can become a reality now. Otherwise, Senxia's original idea could only be a fantasy that only existed in his head, and if he was forced to carry it out, it might just be a ridiculous thing in the end.

Now, it's a different story.

And now, this statue in front of Tamamo not only made Nasu and Takeuchi feel that there was no sense of disobedience, but even the shrine maidens were also frightened.

- Well, the shrine maidens and the god's grandfather probably didn't associate this matter with the second dimension. They just think that these statues are beautiful and very suitable for modern aesthetics.

It's easy to say, but it's not always easy to do. Without the help of the masters, only Mori Xia's own brain, then in the end, nothing can be done.

At least, Mori Xia couldn't do anything without anyone's help - he didn't know anything about statues or anything.

It's not just a statue, it's three hundred and sixty lines, and it's the best of the best. Once in a large eastern country, someone once said that our comrades are all over the world, and in all kinds of movies, TV series and even various news broadcasts, there will be two-dimensional elements that make people feel a smile.

Everyone will feel very happy when they see this element, and those who don't know will not have any strange feelings because of it.

- Actually, this is also one of Morixia's pursuits, when everyone subtly accepts some elements of the second dimension, and then integrates them into normal life without a sense of disobedience, which is indeed a great thing.

"Well, by the way, Nasu, you've done something very interesting before, remember your King Arthur?" asked Takeuchi.

"No! King Arthur is not a girl!"

After Takeuchi asked this question, Nasu suddenly exploded......
